He's apparently the only attending Peditrician at this rural hospital.

The Opp Police Department stopped Dr. Bhagwan Bang in September and charged him with several traffic violations after the doctor attempted to rush to a newborn baby that wasn't breathing, according to the Andalusia Star News.

The judge must be incompetent

Well, I don't know about you, but I sure do feel safer.

I would hope his place of employment pays them and says they'd do the same in any future cases.

He also had his flashers on and was in communication with 911 dispatcher.

I wonder if they'd have written up Parkington Boothwell III, MD.

Like what? He's the only Peditrician for the hospital. He's going to continue to have emergency situations where he needs to get to the hospital 20+ minutes away.

Hospital should hire another Dr, but just because you're the only Dr at the hospital in that specialty doesn't mean that you can go driving completely like an a-hole. I'll give you speeding and maybe slow rolling through stop signs or red lights but not driving the wrong way do like he did.
Allowing him to continue driving like a jack arse everytime there's an emergency is just asking for trouble.

From the local article:
quote:
Dr. Ramak Amjad, who is head of the neonatal unit at Sacred Heart, said Friday he knows of another case when neonatal specialists couldn’t get to a child born in Covington County. Because he knew Dr. Bang and his history of having worked in a neonatal unit, he called him.
On that day, Dr. Bang was able to get to the infant, who lived.
Ironically, Amjad had the same thing happen to him while living in the Midwest. He said he was stopped at 3 a.m. while responding to an emergency call. He was ticketed, and the judge who found him guilty told him he was tired of doctors “getting away with things.”
Several months later, the policeman who gave him a ticket had an emergency with his own child.
“I recognized him,” he said. “I didn’t say anything. After the child was OK, I said to him, ‘I do recognize you. Aren’t you glad I sped to get here?’ "
